Is it hard to use somebody elses Red membership on entry?

Post by kiwomyaswetdream »

Stupid question i know. I finally got my Red memberships after a few years away from attending home games. I didnt read the details or terms and conditions correctly and was under the impression i could set up a second Red membership that could be used by either my mrs or my dad (allocating the card on a game by game basis)..turns out i was well wrong so i either have to go with my mrs all the time as the second card is in her name or on my own. But i was thinking, is it really very hard for my dad to get in on my other halfs card? Can anybody tell me or allay my fears or am i just gonna be shot down??? Any help here would be appreciated.

You'll be fine. Just put your card through the scanner and away you go. Have a copy of your email where your sitting. There was a story on here last year I believe where stewards where outing people who were passing/selling their cards over, But just look like you know what your doing and it will be no problem

when you think about it having to actually buy a red membership really is the biggest rip off at the club.

Cut your head off mate...that's your choice.

Then post it (or get someone else) to post it to Gazidis and co.

Someone else using the card is not a problem at all, the only thing they'll nab you for is if you are seen exchanging cash for cards outside the stadium which obviously won't be the case here.

That I wouldn't recommend, when you put a concessionary ticket through the turnstiles it flashes up a different colour, same as for the disabled fans. I used to go to the matches with someone who is partially sighted, you wouldn't know he was disabled just looking at him and he got asked for id to prove his concession on more than a few occasions each season.

Agreed, Chippy Jnr's card flashes a yellow light that the stewards are looking for.

Red member's deserve to pay the most ,they are nothing but part time fans who attend when they haven't a polo match to attend or dam johnny foreigners who try and influence us with their foreign ways !
The whore houses have to cater for new and foreign diseases ,and some of these people don't even have the good manners to keep to the weatherspoons pubs specifically created for the emirates experience !
